Every night she stays at home waiting for him
All she ever wanted was a fragment of his love Every night he goes on stage chasing the dream Still he spends every surreal second thinking of her I know we used to have it all figured out Can't blame you for feeling deserted and alone And I know I promised you a lot of things But I can no longer All of my life I've been waiting for someone like you To fill the void inside of me Even if there's ten thousand miles between us You'll always be the one closest to my heart I managed to bolster the defense of my heart A bit too dense, a bit too strong for my own good But you saw the small glitch in the solid ice wall And somehow you scaled it up and made your way in All of my life I've been waiting for someone like you To fill the void inside of me Even if there's ten thousand miles between us You'll always be the one closest to my heart Don't you see this is not the reckoning Or the undoing of all we built up Don't you see this is not the reckoning Or the undoing of all I'll write it into lyrics Cause I couldn't put it into words It ruined a lot for me Never meant to, to hurt you Never meant to cause you any pain But we both know how the story goes Can't blame you for feeling deserted and alone And I know I promised you a lot of things But I can no longer All of my life I've been waiting for someone like you To fill the void inside of me Even if there's ten thousand miles between us You'll always be the one closest to my heart Don't you see this is not the reckoning Or the undoing of all we built up Don't you see this is not the reckoning Or the undoing of all 02. Hellgate: Worcester Music by Sonic Syndicate Lyrics by Richard Sjunnesson
You are an inspiration to us all
Armed with your plastic sword A narrow mind and limited brain capacity What I don't understand is Why you revere a guy Who's lacking an eye and never really existed Tell me where's the sense in this? (Why can't you open your minds) Tell me what's the meaning of this (Loose loose situation) I feel for you god of war Your fairer expenses Must be insane with the mount you got in your garage Don't you get me wrong Cause I'm still impressed By the bastardization between a horse and a spider Tell me where's the sense in this? (Why can't you open your minds) Tell me what's the meaning of this (Loose loose situation) Maybe you should be the one who sacrificed an eye To gain the wisdom you so badly require Your savage agitation won't break us, can't break us Just sit tight and watch our power grow stronger Tell me where's the sense in this? (Why can't you open your minds) Tell me what's the meaning of this (Loose loose situation) Maybe you should be the one who sacrificed an eye To gain the wisdom you so badly require Time, time to feed the wolves And open the hellgate Tale a bullet for your team And smile on your way down Like captains of war Following our orders down to hell With no one but ourselves on our side 03. Jack Of Diamonds Music by Sonic Syndicate Lyrics by Richard Sjunnesson
A fugitive from unreality
No sign of my god damned serenity Lost in these barren lands That have nothing I demand Had to look for something new And that day I found you Living in a house of cards Waiting for it all to fall Hope for the best plan for the worst That's what my life is all about Living in a house of cards Waiting for it all to fall Hope for the best plan for the worst That's what my life is all about A quasar from reality With damaged mentality I'll start editing your life Replace the captain of your brain ship Before we set sail for the fail Living in a house of cards Waiting for it all to fall Hope for the best plan for the worst That's what my life is all about Living in a house of cards Waiting for it all to fall Hope for the best plan for the worst That's what my life is all about My destiny outruns me And I can't find that key To lock up everything that's bad inside of me Don't you disagree That your life would be so much better Without me, that isn't hard to see Living in a house of cards Waiting for it all to fall Hope for the best plan for the worst That's what my life is all about Living in a house of cards Waiting for it all to fall Hope for the best plan for the worst That's what my life is all about Living in a house of cards Waiting for it all to fall Hope for the best plan for the worst That's what my life is all about Living in a house of cards Waiting for it all to fall Hope for the best plan for the worst That's what my life is all about 04. My Escape Music by Sonic Syndicate Lyrics by Richard Sjunnesson
I see the world
Through eyes of desperation I never knew what I'd found All I've had is years and years of darkness So I cannot seem to hit the ground I let my guard down And you caught me by surprise Nothing is here but a soul Will I spend my life Wondering What could have been? (Will you take me away?) And will I stand alone And find a better path For myself (For myself) I build my life But take this whole experience What I build from here is to Days would lead to right In the end I watch your soul fade This everlasting emotion Some questions so dangerous The truth is not an option This sustained illusion I pull down over your eyes but I let my guard down And you caught me by surprise Nothing is here but a soul Will I spend my life Wondering What could have been? (Will you take me away?) And will I stand alone And find a better path For myself (For myself) I see truth here in my escape So that I can run away from here How can I forget you? When I listen for... Will I spend my life Wondering What could have been? Will I spend my life Wondering What could have been? (will you take me away?) And will I stand alone And find a better path For myself (For myself) Will I spend my life Wondering What could have been? (will you take me away?) And will I stand alone And find a better path For myself (For myself) 05. Fallout Music by Sonic Syndicate Lyrics by Richard Sjunnesson
To create a better existence
To create a... This is the verity for a lot of you And how you always stand From the outside looking in Now did you ever feel you are so open minded That you don't really belong anywhere Well I've been there too Why are these vultures circling over me I'm not dead yet Used silence as a language for too long This is where we make our stand The wounds at my back begin to heal Our enemy outnumber us three to one But still we fight on Someone has to build Even if it's servere A brigde between the worlds We shoulder it for you All borders will be removed To create a better existence I spend two years To figure out myself I say it's your time now Your time to rise This isn't your only choice But your best choice Refuse to stay put and watch this cancer grow Until it explodes, we must interfere Before the shit hits the fan Someone has to build Even if it's servere A brigde between the worlds We shoulder it for you All borders will be removed To create a better existence This goes out to all you people Who have been mistreated and abused For what you believe in This song is for you The only freedom you'll ever get Is your own mind and thoughts Even if tyrants try to hold you down They can never take that away from you Why are these vultures circling over me I'm not dead yet Used silence as a language for too long This is where we make our stand The wounds at my back begin to heal Our enemy outnumber us three to one But still we fight on Someone has to build Even if it's servere A brigde between the worlds We shoulder it for you All borders will be removed To create a better existence Someone has to build Even if it's servere A brigde between the worlds We shoulder it for you All borders will be removed To create a better existence To create a better existence To create a better existence To create a better existence To create a better existence 06. Power Shift Music by Sonic Syndicate Lyrics by Richard Sjunnesson
I really doubt this is the right side of the force
You better grab onto some hope Cause you are going to need it as we go Keep on fighting ignorance with even more ignorance You'll see that sometimes the hand of fate must be forced And we are under the gun A bullet with our name on Don't know where to run Just see a dead end And we are under the gun A bullet with our name on Don't know where to run Just see a dead end Let's sing to the anthem of the last days There's no turning back Let's sing together now for the last time (for the last time) There won't be any revolution If we don't use our gift Whe have to come to a conclusion A power shift How many times did god fall asleep on the job? I do find a lot of errors in his blueprints Humanity being the biggest flaw Like an inverted King Midas We turn everything we touch to shit And we are under the gun A bullet with our name on Don't know where to run Just see a dead end And we are under the gun A bullet with our name on Don't know where to run Just see a dead end Let's sing to the anthem of the last days There's no turning back Let's sing together now for the last time (for the last time) There won't be any revolution If we don't use our gift Whe have to come to a conclusion A power shift I cannot see how my own world turned alien to me Release me from these shackles And I'll be the first to cross the line Will it be diffrent on the other side? There won't be any revolution If we don't use our gift Whe have to come to a conclusion A power shift There won't be any revolution If we don't use our gift Whe have to come to a conclusion A power shift 07. Contradiction Music by Sonic Syndicate Lyrics by Richard Sjunnesson
I used to be someone
But I grew to be something that I'm not It feels like I'm cornered By everything that you really want Why are we here in this same old room We stand here, with damaged hope But still we carry on We both know and always will It cannot end like this We still have a long way to go It is kind of hard To look back on all the good times And realise nothing Will ever be like it used to be I wish you were someone I can only disengage You opend a lot of doors in me but just closed a few You're both the poison and the antidote Is my best not good enough for you? We stand here, with damaged hope But still we carry on We both know and always will It cannot end like this We still have a long way to go They didn't build Rome in a day We just need to ride out this storm (Ride out this storm) We stand here, with damaged hope But still we carry on We both know and always will We stand here, with damaged hope But still we carry on We both know and always will It cannot end like this We still have a long way to go 08. Damage Control Music by Sonic Syndicate Lyrics by Richard Sjunnesson
Weaving another web of lies around me
Leaving an endless trail of pain behind me I don't deserve the love you give to me How to mend the damage done to you? I would trade a kingdom for a real life mulligan To vindicate what I have done Home is where the heart is So maybe that's where I left mine I know I have failed you But please don't change the lock on your heart Home is where the heart is So maybe that's where I left mine I know I have failed you But please don't change the lock on your heart Encaged in a mirage of my own design Engaged something I hardley can define Even though I'm always on my run Echoes of your voice still hunts me down Waging war on myself To vindicate what I have done (To vindicate what I have done) Home is where the heart is So maybe that's where I left mine I know I have failed you But please don't change the lock on your heart Home is where the heart is So maybe that's where I left mine I know I have failed you But please don't change the lock on your heart The older that I get the more memories I have to leave behind Can't undo anything at all but for you I'll step in line and remain confined My halo will never glow again But the horns keep penetrating my skull Home is where the heart is So maybe that's where I left mine I know I have failed you But please don't change the lock on your heart Home is where the heart is So maybe that's where I left mine I know I have failed you But please don't change the lock on your heart My halo will never glow again 09. Red Eyed Friend Music by Sonic Syndicate Lyrics by Richard Sjunnesson
Million years of evolution
Still not close to perfection God how much time do you need? Cause I'm getting impatient Release the source and I'll find a way to alter my DNA I'm on to you big guy And I'm getting impatient My red eyed friend Time for us to part ways My red eyed friend Don't forget to write me Why can't the demon in my head just help me? Come back and burn all these painful feelings As you used to to before You blocked everything I felt An instrument to unplug my heart The voice in my head Shut down my feelings Come shut down my feelings Come make me empty inside Come shut down my feelings Come make me Why can't the demon in my head just help me? Come back and burn all these painful feelings As you used to to before I can't do this all alone I'm completely incomplete I can't struggle on alone You made me strong when I was weak My red eyed friend Time for us to part ways My red eyed friend Don't forget to write me Why can't the demon in my head just help me? Come back and burn all these painful feelings As you used to to before My red eyed friend where are you now My red eyed friend I miss you so My red eyed friend I'll be waiting for you 10. Affliction Music by Sonic Syndicate Lyrics by Richard Sjunnesson
This is no ordinary demon
I've been down this road before Driven by the wounds I couldn't hide I know exactly where it goes So I guess there's no tomorrow And I can't remember yesterday Locked in a time lapse And it's soul crushing to say At the end of my elbow You'll find one golden rule A ferocious discharge You will hit the ground hard I don't know, I don't care And I don't understand Why they dignify iniquity I don't know, I don't care And I don't understand Why they justify rapacity Left humanity behing long ago Take a look into my world So many places where I don't belong Eradicate what I've become A ferocious discharge You will hit the ground hard I don't know, I don't care And I don't understand Why they dignify iniquity I don't know, I don't care And I don't understand Why they justify rapacity I don't know, I don't care And I don't understand There's an oven waiting for you in hell You'll be reaping what you sow in life What you sow in life What you sow in life Had to put you in the place And wipe that smile off your face You can put a king's cloths on a scarecrow In the end it's still just a scarecrow Still just a scarecrow I don't know, I don't care And I don't understand Why they dignify iniquity I don't know, I don't care And I don't understand Why they justify rapacity I don't know, I don't care And I don't understand There's an oven waiting for you in hell You'll be reaping what you sow in life What you sow in life What you sow in life You're the affliction You'll pay what you owe Don't understand You're the affliction Why they justify You'll pay what you owe Don't understand You're the affliction Why they dignify You'll pay what you owe Don't understand You're the affliction Why they justify You'll pay what you owe Don't understand You're the affliction Why they dignify You'll pay what you owe 11. Ruin Music by Sonic Syndicate Lyrics by Richard Sjunnesson
Walking down the self-destructive path
To extract some shards Of inspiration, the frustration You are only as strong as your weakest link That concerns me The infatuation is an affliction Be careful with what you don't understand My rogue attitude is not welcome here You're the flame that burns me So I know I'm still alive, I'm still alive Don't know how to get you out of this one We're falling, always falling Deep in your heart sits the key to set me free Come set me, set me free They say the eyes are the windows to your soul A revelation, the desperation The imaginary voices in my head aren't imaginary Look into my eyes and you'll see that something's wrong Don't know how to get you out of this one We're falling, always falling Deep in your heart sits the key to set me free Come set me, set me free Be careful with what you don't understand My rogue attitude is not welcome here You're the flame that burns me So I know I'm still alive Don't know how to get you out of this one Deep in your heart sits the key to set me free Set me free No one there when I turn around I'm falling Come uncomplicate my life I'm falling, I'm falling, Always falling Don't know how to get you out of this one We're falling, always falling Deep in your heart sits the key to set me free Come set me, set me free Don't know how to get you out of this one We're falling, always falling Deep in your heart sits the key to set me free Come set me, set me free No one there when I turn around 12. Dead Planet Music by Sonic Syndicate Lyrics by Richard Sjunnesson
A million laps around the sun
And mankind ruined it all in a matter of centuries Good job, 1-0 to Humanity What's up with the vanity? What do we actually have to prove to remove our insanity? How many miles of ice have to melt before we show some sanity? Hear me out... When all the wonders of the world are gone, razed and destroyed There will be no time to ask why it all came to this We can almost hear the glaciers Breaking day and night Still we don't do a damn thing and I just can't see why? Welcome to the last days of the earth Welcome, everything is too late now Welcome, was it really worth it in the end? Welcome to the end of the world The very last tick of this planet Still we don't realize That all of us will pay the price No such thing as the luxury to think twice God may be a kid with an ant farm And we made him shake the box Why wasn't to save the world on top of everyone's to do list? Welcome to the last days of the earth Welcome, everything is too late now Welcome, was it really worth it in the end? Welcome to the end of the world When the power of love Overcomes the love of power The world will finally come to peace When all the wonders of the world are gone, razed and destroyed There will be no time to ask why it all came to this We can almost hear the glaciers Breaking day and night Still we don't do a damn thing and I just can't see why? Welcome to the last days of the earth Welcome, everything is too late now Welcome, was it really worth it in the end? Welcome to the end of the world Take a breath, make it deep It could be the last, we'll ever make But keep in mind, keep in mind We brought this one on ourselves We brought this one on ourselves 13. Mission: Undertaker
You saw my eyes and I saw your smile
A deceiving kiss over the open sea A star painted sky, a slumbering feeling Resurrected once more Guess another undercover job awaits me This game I know so well I can't sleep until I find out what could be To put all at stake If nothing lasts forever Will you be my nothing? I don't believe I'll ever Finish digging my own grave Pieces of my shredded conscience try to hinder me But the dark heart is stronger I'll find out where your feelings are invested And then exploit it And she said wish I could gather all my tears And fucking drown you in them Oh honey, I'm sorry you feel that way I'll be sure to bring my scuba gear If nothing lasts forever Will you be my nothing? I don't believe I'll ever Finish digging my own grave Double agent on another mission It's time to make things wrong I feel my inhumanity kicking in And I don't know for how long If nothing lasts forever Will you be my nothing? I don't believe I'll ever Finish digging my own grave 14. Freeman
Finally we are, we are even in the betrayal department
In fact I think you win, I think you win About time you aired out your dirty laundry I guess the question was more powerful than the answer Take all you want from me Strip me to my very soul But bare in mind that I will always keep fighting you So I gaze towards the sky Doubt that's where I'm going when I die But it doesn't matter in the end It doesn't matter Piece by piece I start to recreate What used to be me A puzzle with a thousand shapes Which don't seem to fit Guess some parts are missing And sides are torn But eventually A picture will be born Took a look inside of you And found a darker place than my mind That's good to know, that's good to know I'll risk some emotions to slip through the gatekeepers of my mind just to project a human illusion Piece by piece I start to recreate What used to be me A puzzle with a thousand shapes Which don't seem to fit Guess some parts are missing And sides are torn But eventually A picture will be born If I can't pull myself together, I'm gonna tear myself apart To vanquish all these demons will take time To banish all your devils will take time Take all you want from me Strip me to my very soul But bare in mind that I will always keep fighting you So I gaze towards the sky Doubt that's where I'm going when I die But it doesn't matter in the end It doesn't matter Piece by piece I start to recreate What used to be me A puzzle with a thousand shapes Which don't seem to fit Guess some parts are missing And sides are torn But eventually A picture will be born |
